I once had a friend named Campbell He used rob, steal, drink, and gamble He did every thing that was low down He was tomcatin' one night When he started a big fight A big policeman came and knocked him down He's in the jailhouse now In the jailhouse now I told him once or twice to quit playin' cards and shootin' dice He's in the jailhouse now I went out last Tuesday, Met a little girl named Susie Told her I was the sharpest thing around Now first she started callin' me honey Then she started spendin' my money We made every honky tonk in town We're in the jailhouse now In the jailhouse now Told him time and again lay off that whiskey, stop drinkin' that gin He's in the jailhouse now Do da da do.....
